Problems solved by technology

A power control system is needed in WCDMA-based cellular networks because this technology is limited by interference, as all users share the same frequency spectrum and their codes are not fully orthogonal (see Holma & Toskala: “WCDMA by UMTS, Radio Access for Third Generation Mobile Communications”, John Wiley & Sons.).
Cancellation of the near-far effect: if all mobile stations transmitted the same power regardless of their distance or fading to the base station, cell phones nearer this station would represent a significant interference for m

Embodiment Construction

[0025] As this invention is based on stochastic methods that attempt to describe the variation of the radioelectric signal in certain environments and is intended for application to real systems, these models must be as accurate as possible even if this requires a greater mathematical complexity.

[0026] The statistics considered for the desired signal and interfering signals under several radioelectric environments are given below in a reasoned manner.

[0027] Desired Signal Statistics:

[0028] The present invention is applicable to macro or microcellular channels in rural, suburban and urban environments. In an urban microcells environment the statistical variation of the desired signal intensity is described in a different manner depending on whether a direct beam exists between the emitter and the receiver. Thus, in the first case there are LOS (Line of Sight) communications and in the second there are NLOS (Non Line Of Sight) communications. The statistical distributions modelling...

Abstract

Method and apparatus for the power control system outer loop of a mobile communications systems in a cellular infrastructure that allows fulfilling a given Quality of Service (QoS) with the minimum power level necessary. This outer loop is in charge of setting the desired signal to interference target ratio SIRtgt that fulfils the required quality of service in a radioelectric environment characterised by stochastic models. The proposed method is based on the application of the Newton-Raphson iteration method on numerical approximations of the various outage probability (QoS) probability density functions in various propagation environments, so that having established this probability and dynamically estimated the second order moments characteristic of each statistic considered, the margin over the SIR median is obtained and thereby the SIRtgt corresponding to the aforementioned outage probability.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] This invention relates to the field of wireless communications and, more specifically, to the outer loop of the power control system of a cellular telephony network. STATE OF THE ART [0002] In January 1998, the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) selected the base technology for the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) (see ETSI, “The ETSI UMTS Terrestrial Radio Access (UTRA) ITU-R RTT Candidate Submission”, June 1998). The main radio interface proposed was the WCDMA (Wideband Code Division Multiple Access), whose characteristics allow a full compliance with third-generation (3G) mobile telephony requirements. Due to the high data transmission rate and the more demanding Quality of Service (QoS) requirements in 3G, it became necessary to develop new planning strategies. The most studied one among these is probably the power control system, specifically the method used to implement the outer loop of this system. ...
